Mahama’s Supreme Court nominees are not court-packing — Akwatia MP
The Member of Parliament for Akwatia, Bernard Bediako Baidoo, has rejected the Minority’s accusation that the Mahama administration is attempting to pack the Supreme Court.
Akwatia MP Bernard Bediako Baidoo has refuted the Minority's claim that the Mahama administration is attempting to expand the Supreme Court. He explained that the situation was different from when former President Akufo-Addo's NDC government allegedly appointed close associates and party members to the court. Baidoo stated that the NDC's objection in 2024 was not solely about adding more judges; their primary concern was the alleged selection of Mr Akufo-Addo's friends and party members.
He noted that the same accusation could not be leveled at the Mahama administration, as their nominees were chosen to assist the executive in a specific task.
